AECP - Creative Watercolour Media




2019 is here and I'm really going to make an effort to get my AECP finish.... so off to a good start.  I took my inspiration today from Creative Watercolor Media... a class tutored by Jennifer Rzasa, Debby Hughes and Laura Bassen.  It's all about using Altenew sprays, reinkers and ink pads as a watercolour medium.  This is a super fun class that really encourage you to make the most of your Altenew supplies.   I don't have any Altenew sprays or reinkers but have a LOT of their cube ink pads.  22 sets of 4 colours!  And boy are these inks PERFECT for watercolouring....


I started with some Brockingford Cold Press 200gm watercolour paper and using my new Ruffled Flowers stamps and some Gold embossing powder I stamped the two outline stamps several times around my card.   I then smooshed the ink pads on to my small Altenew palette to make the "paint"  I used Hydrangea and Ultraviolet for the flowers and Green Field for the leaves.  I then took Vanilla ream and added a wash all over the card.  The sentiment is from More than Words stamp set.  Finished with a few Nuvo drop pearl dots.  I mounted onto a purple panel which is attached to my white card base.  

I really enjoyed using this technique and use it a lot to colour (paint) my stamps.  

I really am enjoying the latest goodies that arrived on Monday from Altenew.  A few more cards are in progress.  

Thanks for stopping by.
